Get ready for a [adjective] time off-Broadway. The world premiere of Mad Libs Live!, a new musical inspired by the ultimate fill-in-the-blanks time passer, will play New World Stages beginning November 1. The interactive show features music by Jeff Thomson and a book and lyrics by Robin Rothstein—with audiences offering their own suggestions here and there.
Mad Libs Live! follows four teenagers, Virtuosa, Gogo, Geyser and Merrily, as they band together to win a singing competition. But when they realize their songs have some holes, its up to the audience to help them out. So essentially, whether they win or not is up to you.
The production, directed by Austin Regan, will feature choreography by Robin Levine, set design by Julia Noulin-Merat and costumes by Bobby Pearce. It is scheduled to play two performances on Saturdays and Sundays through January 3, 2016.
